>they tried to remove any memory of Alexander First time I have heard that. I thought it was the opposite. All his generals wanted to have his greatness rub off on them and made sure his greatness was disseminated and elevated. Deifying him and starting the cult of Alexander that lasted for half a millennia, while the tomb of his mummified corpse was a site of pilgrimage for just as long. Do you have any sources I could read on suppressing Alexander's memory?
